Canon 7D internal audio mic 2 frames off in post (FCP)

[davidnssbm]

I am trying to use Plural Eyes to sync sound from my HPX170 to video to my 7D, but the internal audio reference track for the 7D is two frames off, and although Plural Eyes is working audio sync wise, since it's 2 frames off, it's incorrect and I end up having to sync it manually anyway, negating the time saving factor of Plural Eyes.

Anyone have any idea why its 2 frames off? The audio is 2 frames faster.

Is it two frames faster throughout the entire timeline, or does it drift out by 2 frame towards the end? Checkt o make sure your timeline is 48khz sample rate otherwise you'll have this problem

Not that huge a deal- just move it two frames. These are not the most precise a/v sync cameras in the world.

But it completely negates the time cut in work flow from plural eyes if i still need to move every shot 2 frames over :\

+1, I'd be pretty annoyed too.

I've never noticed it, personally...
